For eight years, I used Blender only as a tool. I had a folder of more than a thousand models doing nothing, and a career built on billable hours.

Fourteen months later, the business that grew out of that folder crossed $100,000.

The Right Shelf is the honest story of how that happened and a playbook you can copy.

WHY YOU SHOULD GET IT

• A real journey, told in order — rejections, wrong guesses, strange deals and all

• Every number shared honestly: the first $10K took five and a half months, the third took nine days

• A step-by-step playbook you can start using this week

• Written for Blender artists, by a Blender artist

• Hand-drawn illustrations made in Blender with Grease Pencil style, and diagrams styled like Blender's own editors

PART ONE — THE STORY (Chapters 1–9)

• What you're actually allowed to sell (the rules nobody tells you)

• First upload: five models, three rejected

• How a small screenshot script became a paid add-on

• The day we realised we were selling hair

• The studio deal delivered as a Google Drive folder

• The honeymoon period every new seller gets — and how to use it

• The bundle week that changed everything

• Months of "maybe" from a large studio, and what finally changed it

PART TWO — THE PLAYBOOK (Chapters 10–15)

• Choosing the right marketplace for your product

• One model, every shelf that will take it

• Finding the quiet corners of the market

• Selling to the audience you already have

• Earning your place in communities
